Day 2

I continued to practice silk cord knotting. Danni also taught me how to bale. I really enjoyed practicing this and could even see some (minor) improvement with each new bale.

First Day!

Today was the first day of my apprenticeship. I learned a bit about the history of silk cord knotting, and then Angie taught me the technique. I used white coral and practiced for about an hour and a half. Although I had a few trouble spots, I think I began to get the hang of it! I'm almost done with an 18 inch strand. Hope to finish it tomorrow...
